1-5 DDADC

1. 本题考查什么是“电器审计”。通过前三段的描述能确定是查出家里的电器使用量，并计算出相应的费用。所以D正确。
2. 细节题。第四段说明接收器显示了我用电的量并计算出钱数，所以D正确。
3. 猜测词义题。从原句中stopped using…; turned off…可知是切断电源，所以A正确。
4. 推测总结题。从文中作者因为接收器的显示而对自己习惯的改变，尤其是倒数第二段和最后一段可以看出作者对自己的变化很满意。所以作者对接收器应该是感谢。

5．考查对难句的理解。The Guilt-o-Meter指的是接收器，以前它总是提醒作者，让他很有负罪感，但是现在 “I am better for it”—很注意节能(energy conscious)，所以接收器也不再让他那么难受了。因此C正确。
